As utilization of wireless communications has accelerated over the past few years, the push to make efficient use of the limited amount of spectrum available has led to the development of more complex modulation schemes. Waveforms have continued to evolve from constant-envelope GSM and IS-95 CDMA of yesteryear to higher order M-QAM and OFDM, which can now be found in all things 5G, Wi-Fi, Satcom and Bluetooth. Minimizing the RF power required is essential to reducing heat dissipation, extending battery life, lowering costs, increasing spectral efficiency and reducing overall system complexity.

Measuring RF power has been standard practice for many years. The most fundamental RF power measurements simply capture a single value at a given point in time. How RF power is measured depends on a priori knowledge of the signal being measured. For example, is it a CW or pulsed waveform? What are the losses in the system? What noise is present? What accuracy and repeatability are required? Perhaps most importantly, how often does the RF signal reach a given peak power, compared to its average power? Read on for a discussion of complex waveform characteristics and some of the functions that are utilized in measuring them.
